Today the gaming branch of vivo called iQOO held a press conference in China, where it officially unveiled Super FlashCharge 120W - fast-charging solution at 120W that is expected to arrive in smartphones as early as this August. According to the official on stage, a 120W fast-charging technology can top up a 4,000 mAh battery in 15 minutes - that’s twice as fast as current flagships with 65W capabilities like the Oppo Find X2 Pro. The conference was just about 15 minutes and it began with plugging a demo unit to charge from 0 to 100%. While it was idling on the side, the iQOO...
Samsung also mulls removing the charger from some retail packages
Apple may not be the only one considering removing the charger from the retail box – Samsung is thinking the same thing, reports ETNews. The company will start next year and only some models will be affected. But which ones? Removing the charger from the affordable segment will have a bigger relative impact on the price (this is a move to save on manufacturing costs). Also, entry-level phones are less likely to require a special high power charger so the ones you already have at home will likely do the job. On the other hand, dropping the bundled charger from premium Galaxy phones also...
Google’s efforts in making updates faster have paid off, Android 10 fastest adopted update
We’ve all heard the argument that Apple iPhones update quickly because Apple controls both hardware and software. With the hundreds of unique devices that run Android, its very difficult to have this same speed and effectiveness of major updates – not to mention, the vast differences of software that OEMs offer. Google has been able to push many updates through Google Play Services, even if devices are no longer receiving major OS updates. In a Google Developers Blog post, it’s revealed that Android 10 was the quickest adopted Android version ever. Of course, it didn’t happen overnight....
Versatile Video Codec (H.266) finalized, will produce 50% smaller files than HEVC (H.265)
After several years of research, Fraunhofer HHI has announced that the Versatile Video Codec (H.266/VVC) standard has been finilized. This was done with the help of several high profile partners: Apple, Ericsson, Intel, Huawei, Microsoft, Qualcomm and Sony. H.266 promises to cut file sizes in half (same for bandwidth requirements for streaming) while maintaining the same visual quality as H.265/HEVC. That’s a massive improvement – keep in mind that something like 80% of all Internet traffic is streaming video. The new codec can handle anything from SD to 8K as well as 360° videos, all...

MediaTek unveils Helio G35 and G25 chipsets for gaming phones under $100
MediaTek unveiled the Helio G35 and G25 chipsets, which are aimed at gaming smartphones though more specifically gaming phones that cost $100 or less. With that budget in mind, here’s what the two chips offer. Actually, it’s more like different bins of the same chip. The Helio G35 is a 12nm chip with an octa-core processor – but it’s all Cortex-A53 cores (not even the faster A55, let alone A7x cores). They run at 2.3GHz and can be connected to up to 6GB of RAM of the 1,600MHz LPDDR4x variety (the cheaper LPDDR3 is also supported up to 4GB). For storage, eMMC 5.1 is the only option. The...
DxOMark gives iPhone SE (2020) 101 overall, 84 for selfies
DxOMark has just released its review of the iPhone SE's main and selfie cameras. The iPhone SE has camera hardware identical to that of the iPhone XR. It's a 12MP sensor with f/1.8 aperture, phase-detection autofocus, OIS, and up to 5X digital zoom. In today's standards, it's a very basic setup. Meanwhile, the selfie camera is a 7MP sensor with f/2.2 aperture and fixed focus lens. Overall, the iPhone SE does a very good job in metering exposure and contrast. Apple's automatic HDR is to thank for that. It works well for both indoor and outdoor images, and managed to expose darks and shadows...

Huawei overtakes Samsung as the world's largest smartphone maker in April 2020
Szdani88lol
According to latest data by Counterpoint research said that for the first time ever, Huawei has surpassed Samsung as the world's largest smartphone manufacturer. The data is from April this year and there are lots of factors at play here. First and foremost, Samsung had a temporary slowdown due to the coronavirus outbreak. The company strongly relies on the India, USA, Latin America and Europe as its main markets but due to the closure of physical stores and the strong decline in smartphone demand, Samsung has suffered quite a bit. In April, the Korean tech giant had a 17% market...

Huawei’s 5nm Kirin 1020 on Track to Be Released in October – Expected to Be Found in Mate 40, 2021 P50 Series
Szdani885nm... intel? xd
Huawei’s Mate 40 series is expected to arrive during the second half of 2020 and with the new release, comes a new chipset, which at this stage, we’ll be referring it to the Kirin 1000 or the Kirin 1020. It has been reported that the new Kirin SoC will be made using TSMC 5nm node, though it’s not confirmed if the new silicon will be using the regular 5nm, 5nm+, or the enhanced 5nm process.
Even if TSMC and Huawei had a healthy business relationship, it’s probably been brought to a halt because of the latest U.S. sanctions, which might prevent TSMC from completing orders for Huawei. Thankfully, the latest report says that the new Kirin chipset is on track for a timely release, meaning that we’re not expected to witness a delay or a cancellation.
Earlier Reports Suggested the Kirin 1020 Could Deliver up to a 50 Percent Performance Increase Over the Kirin 990
The update comes from Chinese microblogging website Weibo, stating that despite the U.S. sanctions imposed in May, the Kirin 1020 (or Kirin 1000) will be released in October. Huawei normally releases a new silicon during the second half of the year. It launched two versions of the Kirin 990 during the IFA 2019 trade show and looking at the previous launch schedule, it looks like the Chinese giant will want to showcase what the Kirin 1020 is capable of doing in its Mate 40 series.
Also, Huawei sticks to the same SoC for its first flagship smartphone series for the next year, so it’s highly likely that we’ll be seeing the Kirin 1020 in action when the P50 family goes official in 2021. As for the specifications, apart from the efficient 5nm manufacturing process, it’s rumored that the Kirin 1020 will deliver up to a 50 percent performance increase over the Kirin 990, and it could be thanks to the addition of Cortex-A78 cores.
Though the Kirin 1020 isn’t expected to surpass Apple’s A14 Bionic in raw performance, we’ll be excited to see how it fares against Samsung’s Exynos 992 and Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 875, both of which are also reported to be made using the 5nm architecture. Unfortunately, this is all the information we have for you at the moment, but we’ll have updates for you in the future, so stay tuned.

Xiaomi working on a phone with 16GB of RAM
There are only a couple of phones that can be configured with 16GB of RAM and there isn't a Xiaomi among them. Not yet anyway, as leakster Digital Chat Station teases that the company is working on just such a model. Earlier this year there were murmurs that the new Mi Mix model will have 16GB, but those quieted down. The Mix does make sense though, as that is Xiaomi's halo series. Alternatively, the Mi 10 Pro was also rumored to have a 16GB option, but that never materialized. 12GB has become pretty common, it's even available on some fairly affordable models. Samsung started...
Red Magic 5G Transparent edition demos its fan on video, 16GB version stock incoming
The Transparent edition of the nubia Red Magic 5G went on sale on May 31 and sold out fairly quickly. This video shows what you're missing out on if you didn't get one. The transparent back panel and the pulsing LED really gives it that "gaming PC" look. Also, this is one of very few phones to feature an integrated fan for cooling. You can see that demoed in the video with a piece of dry ice. Of course, the transparent back makes it possible to see the "smoke" make its way through the phone, a really cool visual. If this tipped the scales for you, you'll be happy to hear that...

Samsung partners with Corning to develop UTG glass for 2021 foldable phones
Sources from South Korea report that Samsung has decided to use Ultra Thin Glass (UTG) on the upcoming Galaxy Fold 2 phone (there were some doubts until recently). It has already made an order from Dowoo Insys and Schott, the same companies that crafted the UTG used in the Z Flip. However, Samsung wants to bring manufacturing costs down and has struck a partnership with Corning (the maker of Gorilla Glass). The two companies are working to to accelerate development and to set up a supply chain in the US. Currently the plan is to start using Corning UTG on foldable phones coming out next...
